Chord
Note that the pad strike component can either be assigned a Note or a Chord message type. Both are easier to assign outside Control Edit,
using the Pad Learn or the Chord functions. Chord cannot be set up in Control Edit.
Setting Minimum/Maximum Values and Reverse
For many of the message types you’ll be able to set a minimum and a maximum value, so you can define a narrow control range.
If the minimum value is greater than the maximum value, the control’s behavior is reversed. You may for example want to mimic the
behavior of a drawbar using a fader. Setting the minimum value of a MIDI CC message to 127 and the maximum value to 0 will reverse the
fader’s behavior, so that pulling it towards the player will gradually send out increasing values and pushing it back will gradually push it
towards 0.
